I am new to Mandrake. I just installed Mandrake 10 and during installation I chose some option that allows one user to login automatically. I think.
Then I messed up something with groups and I had to remove the user and create a new one.
Now X won't start for this user
X works fine for the root
My first problem is that the login screen doesn't come up so I can chose login.
1.--Where is this option saved?
2.--Also, where are the options that determine which desktop is default?
I think the problem is also that my first user had Gnome as default and the new user has KDE.
And I saw for a moment a screen that says something about looking for gnome options and style.
